Rangers at UCIRA conference in La Jolla, November 19

The Los Angeles Urban Rangers expanded our explorations into the less urban wilds of California. In collaboration with the University of California Institute for Research in the Arts (UCIRA), we are currently investigating the university’s little-known UC Natural Reserve System (NRS), an archipelago of field research sites spanning the state. In the coming year, we plan to craft Access UC-NRS: Research in the Expanded Field, a series of tools and programs to widen the use of these spaces, especially by non-scientists.

On November 19, 2010, we will present our initial investigation as part of the grantee showcase for the 2010 UCIRA State of the Arts Conference at the University of California, San Diego in La Jolla.
